Replying to: bodble2 (Jul 06, 2005 10:31 am) Agreed, over the life of the car, the cost is really negligible. Americans truely go nuts when gas prices go up a bit, we really pay peanuts for gas compared to the rest of the world.

Replying to: nightcrawler29 (Jul 06, 2005 7:49 pm) I believe frisconick is in the bay area...so he is also paying some stiff prices like us. What kills me most is the spread (price difference) between regular and premium varies. I see it as low at $0.20...and high as $0.40...and now commonly seeing a $0.25 spread. That is not right to have such a wide spread...and I boycott and move on to another station.

Replying to: delmar1 (Jul 07, 2005 6:24 am) True delmar, we in the Bay Area pay the highest in the country, and it does tick me off. The oil companies say the reason is, we can afford it. You are making a smart move to check out other stations.

Replying to: frisconick (Jul 07, 2005 5:50 pm) Premium was selling for $2.99 a gallon this weekend down in San Diego. Ouch. MPG update. Getting 26mpg (actual calc from mileage divided by fillup...not computer...which also stated the same) in mixed traffic usage. Not bad at all. Improving with mileage. Wasn't expecting above 25mpg...bet I will cap out at 26mpg.

Replying to: delmar1 (Jul 11, 2005 10:59 am) I am getting a little over 25 mpg in mixed driving, not bad for a 270 hp car. And I tell my wife to gun it all the time, and she really does.

Replying to: frisconick (Jul 11, 2005 11:11 am) I was surprised at the MPG rate of this car on my first week of using it.... 25 MPG on mixed driving.

Replying to: nightcrawler29 (Jul 16, 2005 9:00 pm) It is my understanding, that after the car is broken in a little, it will get even better mileage. Is this true? Replies to this message: laurasdada (Jul 17, 2005 1:24 pm) delmar1 (Jul 17, 2005 3:06 pm) frisconick (Jul 17, 2005 3:55 pm)

Replying to: frisconick (Jul 16, 2005 9:27 pm) Yes, I believe that is correct. Assuming your driving habits don't change and the car is maintained. My last tank I averaged 28 mph and 24 mpg. After a littl more than 6000 miles, I do think the mpg is improving slightly. Replies to this message: delmar1 (Jul 17, 2005 3:06 pm) frisconick (Jul 17, 2005 3:55 pm)

Replying to: laurasdada (Jul 17, 2005 1:24 pm) MPG does improve with miles. I have about 2000 miles and it is getting improved mileage. Last tank...I went ahead and stuck in half tank regular (on top of my half tank of premium). What I don't understand is how I picked up 2mpg to 27mpg on similar mixed driving and same driving conditions. Any ideas?
